CFS Noted for Work with Women’s Retirement Savings
An article in the Fiscal Times mentions CFS for its research on retirement savings for working women. The news story focused on women’s preparedness for retirement, going on to say that women are far less prepared for retirement than their male counterparts. On average, women have an income 42% lower than men in their retirement years. CFS affiliate, Karen Holden, is currently lead researcher on the center’s project “Increasing Retirement Savings by Working Women: Understanding and Reducing Contribution Differentials” which seeks to understand savings choices and bolster women’s participation in workplace-based savings programs.
